What's annoying me though is that apart from 3-4 pics I've seen, I can't really find any pictures of that wing on the Z. What made me want it so bad is this Z I found on CarDomain that has 19's, kit, and the spoiler, and it looks so clean. I've been raving about wanting the Zeta wing, BUT I can do alot with $400, plus I want my Z to be unique rather than just keeping it too traditional. And I'm not too fond of the pedestal wing.

isnt the jspec a pedestal wing?

Re: Stillen GTZ lip install
 
well, the '94-'96 pedestal wing doesnt look that good. but i think the '99 pedestal wing looks really nice.

Hehe, the camera manufacturer / model is in the EXIF data in unmodified image files.

As for the wing, I've gone full circle from wanting the Zeta to the '99 and now back to no wing, such a tough decision. You don't have any tint on your Z, do you?

Re: Stillen GTZ lip install
 
Yeah they're tinted, but its some cheap tint that came on the car when I bought it. It looks like 35%, but I'm not sure. It's getting redone anyways.

The '99 Jspec is a pedestal, but it flows much better than the 94-96 in my opinion.




This one is actually a painted and installed Ion Dynamics '99 replica wing

So I'm pretty much set on it.

I used to love the 99 wing. But meh, doesn't flow with the lines IMO. Looks kinda out of place.

The only one I ever saw it on that I liked had a WW rear.

Hey I just ordered the Stillen GTZ front lip for my 93 Convertible because the installed one is cracked to hell (received it like that. Bit of a fixer-upper).



One thing I noticed, though, was that the original poster's front lip didn't seem to extend very far back from the front of the car.



For a better idea of how far back mine goes:



Is this normal? Do most people just remove most of that?

And will the condition of this lip affect the installation of the Stillen lip?

Thanks,
Brady

Re: Stillen GTZ lip install
 
you'll probably need to replace that fascia to make the lip fit right, that one is so fargone....

baronbrady 09-03-2007 02:25 AM

Re: Stillen GTZ lip install
 
Specifically, is it normal for the lip to extend that far back from the front of the car? And do you think I can maybe do some kind of repair work to make it fit in the new lip?

That piece that extends back under the car is the splash shield, it is not part of the fascia but attaches to it with screws. McLarenF1Kid is missing his.

I think you will be able to repair your original fascia enough that the Stillen lip will attach without issue, and the repair won't need to be pretty because the Stillen lip will cover it.

3M tape? Are you sure? I am also planning to place my order for a nice Stillen GTZ front lip.
